According to Next Gen Stats, the 49ers back now owns two of the three fastest speeds by a ball carrier over the last two seasons.
The fastest speed saw Breida reaching 22.30 MPH on Monday night against the Cleveland Browns, giving the 49ers an early 7-0 lead. He came close to reaching that speed during Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last season.
Breida had another touchdown on the next drive, this time after hauling in a Jimmy Garoppolo-thrown pass in the end zone, giving San Francisco a 14-0 lead.
